Best rewards card on regular spend?

Hi all,

Just a quick one and some advice, what would be the best CC rewards (cash back or reward) on a monthly regular spend of £350 at least per month?

I have already had AMEX Platinum, Rewards card and currently on Barclaycard Freedom.

I cannot no longer reapply for any AMEX cards for six months because of previous cards held and I find Freedom a bit of a anticlimax because you can earn everywhere but spend the points nowhere scenario!

All suggestions welcome :)

Thanks in advance,

Haze.

    Halifax Clarity Reward

    You need a Halifax current account but...

    £5 per month cashback (rebated to your card account) as long as you spend £300 in the statement period.

    Works out at 1.6% on £300 per month, but reduces the more you spend, eg spend £600 and it comes in at 0.8%.


    Virgin Charity

    1% to charity (with gift aid) but if you don't want to donate just keep 0.8% for yourself (if you could live with yourself!)
